HW 3/3

There are consequences for race interbreeding. Different races being together is inferior and it will cause the offspring to be unintelligent.

Blacks were inferior. Removing slavery created more issues. Also that he claims whites were superior and this causes fights. 

Frederick Hoffman’s ‘Race Amalgamation’ emphasizes that he is writing about the segregation issues between whites and blacks down south. Hoffman wants the readers to feel if what he says about having babies with women of other races is horrifying because that is what he led me to believe. Hoffman continues to explain to readers that blacks and whites shall not be together interracially because there are going to be aftermaths. 

According to the book on page 80 it states, “And it may be said, only with emphasis, that the cross- breed of white men and colored women is, as a rule, a product inferior to both parents, physically and morally.” Also the measures he uses to an extent. The unstated beliefs would be if he(Hoffman)  had witnessed something like what he says and why he’s sooo….. on the downside of interbreeding.

In the Strivings of the Negro People, W.E.B Dubois draws readers’ attention by his use of Ethos(credibility) and Pathos( Emotions). This writing was to show that at the time there was lack of opportunity and such white supremacy.
